Verdict

The Apple AirPods Pro are a great choice for those looking for a truly wireless earbud with active noise cancellation. They offer a warm, rich sound that is suitable for any genre of music and never harsh. The battery life is also impressive, lasting up to 4.5 hours on a single charge. However, some users have reported issues with connectivity and the fit may not be comfortable for everyone.

Verdict

The EarFun Air Pro 2 True Wireless earbuds offer a neutral yet versatile sound profile with a touch of extra thump, body, and boom in the bass range. They have an easy-to-use stem design that is similar to the AirPods Pro. They also have active noise cancelling (ANC) and can block out a decent amount of ambient noise around you. However, their ANC performance falls short of that of the previous gen and they lack a companion app and sound customization features. Overall, these earbuds are great for those looking for a neutral yet versatile sound profile with good ANC performance.

Battery Life

I really wanted to love these...

You can still hear some loud noises, but those are muted significantly. As for Transparency mode, it amplifies outside noise so you can be aware of your surroundings while listening to music. This was quite helpful while I was walking on the street and did not want to be completely isolated from the outside world. Overall I'd say these two features are a solid 10/10 Battery life: On paper Airpods pro have less battery life than Airpods 2 (4

Great functionality for a reasonable price

The range is better than the more expensive Jabra wireless headset that I use for work. The battery life is exceptional. I used them for a few hours a day for weeks before needing to charge the storage pod. They were easy to connect to my phone

Sound Quality

My in-store AirPods Pro Max Impressions

>The Apple AirPods Pro have a fairly neutral sound profile, suitable for a variety of audio content. While they struggle a bit more to produce thump and rumble, they lack less bass than the [Apple AirPods 2 Truly Wireless which have an open-back design

The 5 Best AirPods Alternatives - Spring 2022

Unfortunately, they lack a companion app and don't have sound customization features. They also have high latency, so you may notice some audio syncing issues if you use them to watch a movie or take a video call. Otherwise, if you like the design of AirPods and prioritize neutral sound, they're a good option.

Neutral

Noise Cancellation

Good pair of bluetooth noise canceling earbuds?

If you’re using them with Apple products, it’s basically a no-brainer buy for the AirPods Pro. The ecosystem integration is absolutely awesome. The noise cancelling is fantastic, and transparency mode is super useful if you need to quickly hear voices or wear them while outside for awareness.

Great performing wireless headphones for small ears

It also works well with one earbud or with both. I also like that the charging case has a wireless charging feature. There are much more features that I can easily access and apply, then with the previous Beats by Dre pro-wireless headphones that I have been using. Noise cancellation: I travel a bit for work, and was able to test them out in airports and on airplanes

Fit

Good sound, poor fit.

The sound quality is good, The in ear fit is not good, I tried all 3 sizes of the supplied silicone ear tips and none fit properly. I tried the proper fit app on my iPhone and could not get an "Okay" on the app. I don't feel they fit securely enough, so I will only use them when I am seated. The Air Pods are not comfortable for any lengthy listening session

I have owned Edifier TWS5, TSW1, Samsung Galaxy Buds 2, Plus, Pro, Earfun Air Pro, Sony WF-1000XM4, Sennheiser CX, TW Momentum 2, Soundcore Liberty Air 2 Pro, Jabra Elite 3, and Jabra Elite 7 Pro. Liberty 3 Pro:. Fit 8/10: Was a little confused at first but after getting the right size tips and earwings and simply doing what the instructions say (insert at the correct angle and twist), they stay in good and are comfortable. Jabra Elite 3 and 7 Pro win here for ease and comfortability overall but these are fine

Bluetooth Connectivity

Should I get the Sony WF-1000XM4?

Particularly if you're going to use it with an Apple device, consider the AirPods Pro. You'll find a bunch of comparisons online like this

Good sound quality, but terrible for calls. Do not fit well in small ear canals.

I haven't received those yet so I can't compare. 10/25/2022 update: I want to give an update because after this review, Earfun reached out to me directly to try and make things right. They went out of their way to try and help me find a pair that would work better for me. I was able to exchange these for an Earfun Air S, which I will say was a definite improvement on this set of earbuds, particularly for video calls and playback voice delay

Comfort

Great airpod investment

So I decided to purchase the pros since they won’t slip as easily as the original AirPods (Let me start by saying they came pretty fast, and they were packaged safely!) I’d say this is a great investment, it’s very comfortable and from what I’ve gathered so far on these is you can answer your calls, skip and rewind back with your music as well, it’s very sound proof so if you’re one of those people who do best getting tasks done during work, school, or even at home without noise around you, these are the way to go. I hope this helped someone! :)

Ear Fun is the real deal ... don't pay more

sound quality is awesome and I don't see how it could possibly be anymore comfortable. I use them during 20+ miles of walking every week outdoors and I live in the southwest (so think hot and sweaty). I've interacted a couple times with customer service over the last couple years and each time they're spot-on helpful and take care of me

Durability

Pi7 great sound everything else meeeh

I’ve used airpods pro for 6 months heavily, i’ve a/b tested noise cancelling on airpod pro with these...These are better beside a busy road or air con unit

These are (were) amazing, so far.. **Updated**

But I've run into some issues that I'm afraid are deal breakers for me. First, I cannot get these things to stay put in my ears to save my life. If I'm doing literally anything besides sitting completely still, it isn't long before these earbuds start coming loose and I'm having to adjust them CONSTANTLY. I tried using them while raking my yard and it was a pain to say the least

Warranty

AirPods just died and with Spotify Hifi otw what cans should I invest in?

You should definitely take them to an Apple store, they will probably replace them for free even if they are out of warranty. Last month both of my AirPods Pro (bought on release date, so they were out of warranty) died and had terrible static in both ears. I made an appointment with the Apple store notifying them of the issue, and when I went they ran some tests and just replaced them afterwards at no cost. I’m pretty sure it is a fairly common issue, because they have a dedicated replacement program

The earbuds themselves are great budget earbuds-- good sound quality, good fit, good battery, but what I'm really impressed by is their customer service! One of my earbuds stopped working and I was upset (because I love these!) so I went to their website and sent a warranty request. Less than a week later, their lovely customer service people are sending a replacement! I was contacted by a real person (Freya, who was great) and they were helpful and polite. Great earbuds, great service! Highly recommend!

Price Point

Apple-level quality at Apple-level price

I’m sorry. I can’t recommend this product. If Sony US team is reading this review and if Sony Japan is designing all the products, please tell the Japan team that you don’t need to make too many half-baked products. You just need to offer 3 tiers of products (aka “good”, “better” and “best”) and focus on making sure they are the best products at their price points

Wow! Super impressed!

There were some great YouTube videos and a few articles raving about their quality, especially for being under $100. I went to Amazon and sure enough, these had great reviews. I had been reading Bose, Sony, Apple and Jabra reviews and they were all mixed reviews and to pay close to $200 with mixed reviews didn't sit right with me. The Amazon EarFun reviews really sold me, and I thought, for $80, it's worth a shot
